15,000 People Showed Up to Watch the Flyers Practice Last Night

Over 15,000 of you nuts showed up at the Wells Fargo Center last night to watch the Flyers practice. That’s only 1,000 less people than the average reported Sixers home attendance this season. Somewhere, Adam Aron is wondering how he can get more streamers and former American Idol contestants as in-house entertainment.

Sean Couturier called it "awkward" to practice in front of that many fans. He's right. Nobody does that. Ever. Not even the Toronto Maple Leafs. But Thursday night, we cheered Bryzgalov's impressive performance. In practice. We jeered at Michael Leighton for giving up soft goals. In practice. We laughed at Wayne Simmonds for not being able to score at all. In practice.

Yeah. Hockey's back in Philadelphia.

Indeed it is.

To give you an idea of how impressive this was, here is the crowd at the Toronto Maple Leafs’ open practice yesterday. Granted, this was during the day… but still:

Who would do that when they can sit at home and get so drunk they piss their bed? I just don’t get it, it’s practice people. Practice.
Don’t buy NHL gear for 2 seasons. It’s the law of long strikes which cut your season short! Seriously people, man up, woman up, stand up for your damn selves. Yeah, i’ll watch every game, I’ll go to games, but buy gear I will not. I can live without fresh gear for two seasons, can’t you?

Brandon Sutter is a natural at center, which is where he spent a majority of his time in Carolina. He’s centered the third line (or the checking line) consistently for the past two seasons, which means Sutter has been up against the most skilled players in the NHL. He’s no stranger to the penalty kill, and his defensive game is on point. But Sutter can and will score goals if given the opportunity. He rarely, if ever, got time on the power play in Carolina. The skills are all there: he’s quick, he passes well, and he knows when to take a shot and where to put the puck. I expect Sutter to sit consistently closer to 20 goals in an 82-game regular season now

They closed xfin to air it out? better than half the draft class needing treatment for herpes from their romps with princess sass. i wonder if candy from the oak was her friend that also spent the entire weekend with underage cock stuffed in every hole on her body.

I can’t believe Flyers hockey is back!!! Big Blueline, Broad St. Bullies, Beers, Brawls, Backfatted Broads and Beefsteaks. LET’S GO FLYBOYYYYYYS. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup. We want the cup.

wow @Penguins Fan Who Goes to Temple. Thanks for making the Pens fanbase look like a bunch of idiots. You deserve all the insults from these fans haha. I’m a Pens fan but I was quite embarrassed reading that. Adam Asham… really? Wrong name and wrong team. 0 for 2 buddy. And quit trying to fight Philly fans on a Philly site, you really think you will win? I don’t think so.
